Fiction: Eureka Street, by Robert McLiam Wilson

Bought in Dublin.

Really liked this book. Set in Belfast. Two down-n-out friends. Chuckie Lurgan, protestant, and Jake Jackson, catholic. They're so scruffy and downtrodden, one would have to call them anti-heroes. It's sarcastic and crass and rough and funny and unexpected. Very enjoyable.
